A two-step catalytic pyrolysis technique is utilized to produce reduced graphene oxide (rGO) from waste plastic and a hydrothermal synthetic route to produce NiCo2O4 nanorods and NiCo2O4@WPrGO nanocomposites. The waste plastic derived reduced graphene oxide (WPrGO) provided the conductive network an...
